Gastrointestinal endoscopy education for nursing units within the hospital.
Rapid advances in gastroenterology challenge those professionals active in the field to keep abreast of the state of the art. Other hospital nursing professionals who care for GI patients also need to be aware of how their roles are being changed by these advances. This paper describes the development of an educational program for these professionals. An outline of the course material is provided to assist others in developing their own programs.
